DESCRIPTION
Shellshock 2 blasts players with a blood-and-guts, heat-and-humidity, altered-states interpretation of a soldier's experience in the Vietnam War. As much (if not more) than Eidos' original Shellshock, Blood Trails aims to present gruesome and disturbing aspects of war, with first-person shooter action in a tense, survival horror-style atmosphere. In a speculative-fiction step beyond the straightforward original, Shellshock 2 sets players against not only the evils of men in times of war, but also against a darkness that threatens the soul of all humanity.
A top secret cargo, known by the codename "Whiteknight," is lost when the plane that was carrying it disappears over uncharted jungles of Vietnam. Special Forces squads were sent to find and retrieve Whiteknight, but they too disappear — except for one poor soldier, who makes his way out of the jungle a month later, dangerously insane. Now, Whiteknight promises its own special hell to the player brave enough to seek its secrets in the jungle. Visual effects, audio cues, and even the way the game plays all change as the experience progresses, to impart a sense of disorientation, deterioration, and dismay. ~ T.J. Deci, All Game Guide

“If your looking for a war game first person shooter then look elsewhere because your gonna get a whole lot of nothing but frustration here. Prepare thyself because again some publisher decides to slap together some gameplay elements that work in other games just fine but not in this game. Its almost as if the publisher said to themselves " lets make this game as unplayable as we possibly can and charge a bunch of money for it." The only thing going for this game is the whole Vietnam War take with a twist of zombies thrown in the mix. If this game was done right there might be a fun journey there but in true crap on this game fashion there is much better available.”

“War and Zombies.. Well, we have seen that before. In this game the war is the Vietnam War and the zombies are infected humans of a "Lab experiment gone wrong". This game has had its share of critism by review sites, but actually I think it's a descent game. It is not very long, gets a bit scary at times and you get to shoot a lot - both soldiers and zombies, thus training you ability to make head shots.
The story is ok too and considering the easy achievements, I would recommend this game as a great rental.. Yes, rental. You can finish it in a day or two, so don't pay to much for it, if you buy it and the best advice? Find a guide for this game; it will help you defeat the waves of zombies coming at you in the last mission in the game. I never said it would be THAT easy..”
